I can see where your title comes from with the pattern created by the building and the tiny figures scurrying about below. You have positioned yourself well and made an excellent composition. It certainly gives a good impression and feel of space. Monochrome was the only way to present this scene.   Posted: 07/12/2025 09:45:12

Hi Adi,
This is a terrific image of the Oculus. I like that you have been able to incorporate the folks walking around on the main level. This emphasizes the scale of the oculus and the light shining through the roof lends an almost magical character to the image. The black & white treatment captures the unique architectural character of this structure. Well done!

The composition is really impressive. Everything looks sharp and well-lit all the way through. There's this awesome feeling of scale, especially with the tiny people standing in such a huge space. I also like the sunburst effect.   Posted: 07/14/2025 14:11:37

I have wanted to capture this same image but with not much luck. Congratulations.
Wonder what the result would be if you either brought down the exposure slightly or increased contrast? The rays of the sun would be heightened.   Posted: 07/14/2025 14:12:40
